haha. i recently had a very similar, healthy confrontation.
every morning i take our child to daycare, and when he's in the car (even when he's not so that i can get in a good habit), i drive extra careful and don't take any stupid risks. ie. pulling out in front of someone or trying to make a yellow light that i know will turn red before i go through.
anyways, i'm driving the speed limit down this residential street and this dude in a bmw is riding my ass. i stay on course and we get to a stoplight that was red. because the view of oncoming traffic is slightly blocked by a retaining wall it clearly states "no turn on red". so i don't turn. the dude explodes and starts laying on his horn trying to force me to turn. i can see that he's screaming at me from inside his car so i put the car in park, open my door and step out. i take off my shades and in a really nice, jesting way, to calm down (hands facing palm down, motioning downward). i point to the "no turn on red" sign and then point to my son sleeping in the carseat and gesture "shhhh" to inform him that he's sleeping.
i could see the guys face get bright red and i was sure he was going to get out and throw down. instead he said "i'm sorry" and put up his hand like "my bad".
if my son wasn't in the car i would have popped the trunk and gotten out my 3 iron (cause i can't hit that club straight to save my life) and i would have hauled off on his rearview mirror. fucker.
